Hi, dovecot has a little crazy behaviour connecting to a mysql db: if you specify "127.0.0.1" as host instead of "localhost" it seems to work, also with a password. BUT, if you assign host=localhost without a password, it works too (as Ger Visschers says)....
Got the same problem with alpha3 and mysql-4.1.14 on FreeBSD-5.4R/i386. (both installed from ports)
Does not work in any combination with password. Does work without password.
Noticed weird client hostnames reported by the mysql server in the dovecot logs (messages from libmysqlclient). Seems like it wrongfully computes the client hostname, and the authentication fails becauese of that. Is there some kind of initialization in the libmysqlclient?
